I pray for wisdom to manage myself in the best way possible so that I have enough energy for the circumstances I find myself in. Translation: I need to eat better, continue to exercise, and continue to pray. I feel like I have been stress eating lately and then feeling gross later, and I need to take better care of myself.

I know I am supposed to present my body as a living sacrifice. I am doing a good job of drinking tea and water. I also have good breakfasts (today, omelet with cheese). It’s the “when life hits the fan” and I am reminded of what life is like that I sometimes eat fries and pupusas (from the air fryer) as a supper. I have had fresh pupusas and they are absolutely delicious, but the six that came from the freezer to the air fryer to my mouth were maybe not the healthiest choice. I need to really maximize protein, vegetables, and fruit and instead I am maximizing calories.

I know I need to go completely gluten free, but I also know that instead of journaling and praying and calling someone, it is easier just to eat something with wheat, preferably something sweet. However, I simply cannot do this life long term if I continue to eat gluten. I pray for strength and self-control to make wise choices, in eating and all areas of my life.
